C5m/F5m Quick Setup and Getting Started Guide 2
Model CFT-004
Getting Started with the Motion
®
C5m/F5m Tablet PC
Power on and off
Press the power button at the top right side of the
C5m/F5m Tablet PC.
You can shut down your tablet from Windows
®
. Tap
the Start menu then tap Shut down. If Windows doesn’t
respond, force the tablet to shut down by pressing the
power button for about ve seconds.
Sleep
Place your C5m/F5m in Sleep mode when you go away
for a short period of time to conserve battery power.
When you return, the Tablet PC quickly resumes activ-
ity and your desktop is the same as you left it.
To put the Tablet PC in Sleep mode, press and release
the power button. To wake up the tablet from Sleep
mode, press the power button again.
Note The power button blinks when the tablet is in
Sleep mode.
Locking and unlocking
To lock and unlock your C5m/F5m, press the Security
button on the right side of the Tablet PC.
Using the pen
An important difference between traditional PCs and
Tablet PCs is that you frequently use a digitizer pen
instead of a mouse and keyboard. The C5m/F5m pen
has a pressure-sensitive tip, eraser, and a function
button. Pressing the function button is equivalent to
right-clicking a mouse.
Using touch
Your C5m/F5m is equipped with 10-nger touch,
which means you can use your ngers to select items
and open les, zoom in and out, scroll through brows-
er windows and documents, and more.
Touch works like a mouse. Tap to select an item and
double-tap to open it.
tip To open a right-click menu using touch, press
your nger on the display until a circle
appears, then lift your nger and the shortcut
menu appears.
If you nd that the touchscreen doesn’t respond as
you expect, or if the tablet starts to respond to un-
intentional touch input, you can ne-tune touch by
resetting the touch system to its optimal state. To start
the application, open Motion Dashboard, then tap Pen
& Tablet, and then tap Touch Settings.
Checking battery power
You can check the remaining battery power in your C5m/F5m by:
Opening Motion Dashboard, tapping Power, and viewing the value beside Remaining Charge.
OR
From the Windows Notication area, tap the power indicator, which changes appearance depending
on whether the Tablet PC is plugged in or running on battery.
– If the Tablet PC is plugged in, tap the plug icon.
– If it is on battery power, tap the battery icon.
When the tablet is plugged in, the lights on the gauge indicate the batterys current level of charge—
from one amber light (less than 25% charged) to four green lights (between 75% and 100% charged).
Four green lights The battery is between 75% and
100% charged.
Three green lights The battery is between 50% and
75% charged.
Two green lights The battery is between 25% and
50% charged.
One green light The battery is less than 25%
charged.
Flashing amber light The battery is low.
Battery tips
Use AC power when available. When the C5m/F5m is plugged in, the battery charges while in use.
Put your Tablet PC in Sleep mode when youre not using it.
Stop unnecessary background applications and processes.
When not in use, use Motion Dashboard to disable wireless adapters. Tap Wireless and clear the
checkbox beside the wireless device you want to disable.
Set the brightness of the display to automatically dim after a selected number of minutes of inac-
tivity using the Motion Dashboard Display category. Tap Display and select the idle time from the
drop-down list beside To extend battery life, dim display after.
When using mobile broadband, reduce how often the C5m/F5m updates email and other Internet
applications to once every half hour or longer.
Disable mobile broadband when you know a signal is unavailable.
Condition your battery once a month. To condition it, run the Tablet PC on battery power until the
batterys charge level drops below 20%.
